'''Herald of Ice''' is a [[Herald]] skill. It [[Mana reservation|reserves mana]] to grant added [[cold damage]] to [[attack]]s and [[spell]]s and causes [[frozen]] enemies you shatter to explode, dealing cold damage in an area.
==Skill functions and interactions==
'''Explode on Shatter''': While Herald of Ice is active, if you shatter an enemy (usually by killing a frozen enemy but also [[Call of the Void]] works for killing chilled enemies), an explosion will be created that deals cold [[secondary damage]] to other enemies in an area. This explosion can be modified by support gems linked to Herald of Ice, such as {{Il|item_name=Hextouch Support}} or {{Item link|item_name=Increased Area of Effect Support}}.
'''Spell Damage''': Because of the line {{C|mod|Damage is not affected by modifiers to spell damage}}, support gems which grant more spell damage, increases and reductions to spell damage on the passive tree, or even critical modifiers such as {{C|mod|increased critical strike chance for spells}} will not apply.
'''Area of Effect''': [[Area of Effect]] modifiers from passives, items, and gems affect the radius of the on-kill explosion.
